I love it! I had a friend who painted harlequin diamonds on her wall - she used the same color all over, but used flat paint and gloss paint to make the contrast. It was gorgeous!
I loved your comment about white stuff and kids not mixing. We bought a fixer-upper when my sons were aged 3-10. I told the contractor I wanted brown carpet and he said brown is not in fashion any more. I showed him the mud in the back yard and the garden the boys were digging up for me, and I told him I am raising kids, not carpet. He walked back in and asked "What shade of brown do you want?" I got a lovely dark mottled shag and it lasted years!

ReplyDeleteOH! That sounds pretty! I love the flat/gloss idea.
ReplyDeleteYou are constantly fueling my white obsession.
ReplyDeleteProblem: I decorated our place in all white - white couches, white cupboard, white bedding...BEFORE I had kids. They don't mix!!
When we move into a new place this summer, I think need to do some serious reconsidering =(
